Die Trying

I drew Fluffy — and was psyched because I’ve never worked with him/her before. What a lovely library of stems to discover!! Fluffy, thank you for contributing such a robust collection of loops, synth, bass, guitars, hums and more.

I was drawn to the uploads called “Or Die Trying” — and well, the rest wrote itself.

Have I ever told you all how much I LOVE Secret Mixters??? There aren’t words to say how much.

Happy Birthday ccMixter!

Die Tryingby Madam Snowflake

Life circles around
Death is a reset button
Dragonless flames in surround
These poeple are a certain glutton

For punishment, still on the fence
Hear the lament of our permanent displacement
Our permanent displacement

Give up
Are you just gonna
Give up
Are you just gonna
Give up
Give up, give up or will you die trying

They are shouting too loud
Voices in dissonance frozen
Repeat, recur, sheep in the crowd
A beacon now darkened and broken

Give up
Are you just gonna
Give up
Are you just gonna
Give up
Give up, give up or will you die trying
Give up
Are you just gonna
Give up
Are you just gonna
Give up
Give up, give up or will you die trying

I’m not afraid I’m not looking away
In my heart holding space for you always
I’m not afraid I’m not looking away
In my heart holding space for you always
I’m not afraid I’m not looking away
In my heart holding space for you always
I’m not afraid I’m not looking away
In my heart holding space for you always

Give up
Are you just gonna
Give up
Are you just gonna
Give up
Give up, give up or will you die trying
Give up
Are you just gonna
Give up
Are you just gonna
Give up
Give up, give up or will you die trying
